1 For the music director, on the eight-string lyre, a psalm of David.
2 Adonai, do not rebuke me in Your anger! Do not discipline me in Your wrath.
3 Be gracious to me, Adonai, for I am weak. Heal me, Adonai— for my bones are shuddering with fear,
4 as is my soul— and You, Adonai—how long?
5 Turn toward me, Adonai, deliver my soul! Save me—because of Your mercy.
6 For there is no memory of You in death, in Sheol who will praise You?
7 I am worn out with my groaning. Every night I make my bed swim, drenching my pillow with my tears.
